ABB 1MRK001608-CBr00 Communication Module
Description
ABB 1MRK001608-CBr00 Communication Module is an industrial communication module designed for industrial automation applications, aligned with ABB’s line of control and communication hardware. While direct technical specifications for this exact model are unavailable, it shares a model number prefix with related ABB control modules, including the 1MRK001608-CA programmable logic controller (PLC) module and 1MRK001608-CAr02 control module, both engineered for industrial control systems. As a communication module, it is expected to enable reliable data transfer between industrial devices, supporting common industrial communication protocols such as Modbus RTU, a widely used standard for long-distance, copper-based data transmission with baud rates ranging from 1.2K to 115.2K, and support for up to 32 slave devices with addresses 1 to 247. It may also feature compatibility with RS485 connectivity, which supports transmission distances of hundreds of meters, outperforming shorter-range RS232 systems. Like related ABB modules, it is built for rugged industrial environments, integrating seamlessly with existing industrial control setups to facilitate coordinated operation of PLCs, sensors, and other automation equipment.
